if you haven’t hiked Concordia or snow lake,you are kidding yourself if you think you’ve seen real mountains.i’ve hiked all your top 10 hikes and they are all quite good, but there is no feeling like standing at
Concordia with those huge fierce peeks all around you. nowhere else comes close.
plus because the bad guys live there almost no tourists!

its very tough to pick. I also love huayhash, muir, arrigetch peaks in brooks range. Julian alps and dolomites are great but crowded. all western u.s. national parks are great.
we love southern Utah.
one thing I would like to say is not to listen to the news about Pakistan. baltistan is ok! those poor people need tourists and love having us.
oh, also tien shan are quite nice. so many.
btw, I love your website. keep up the good work.

Hi there,
I can also recommend the crossing of the Alpes from Germany (Oberstdorf) to Italy (Meran) via the path E5, an incredible tour!
Here you can find lots of impressions of the tour and useful information (in German):http://www.alpenspaziergang.de/bildergalerie/
Enjoy! 🙂

Thanks Rick, some amazing hikes that we still want to go and do. We definitely want to do The Otter when we go back home to SA. Hiking around Ilha Grande in Brazil was also an amazing coastal hike. How did the Otter compare with all these other famous hikes? We are seriously looking at Pakistan. Here is our top 5 http://stingynomads.com/top-5-hikes/
